Brief Summary:
Cardiovascular diseases are among the most common causes of death in kidney transplant patients. Physical activity is of great importance in preventing cardiovascular diseases after transplantation. Although regular physical activity is recommended in international guidelines to prevent post-transplant mortality and morbidity in kidney transplant patients, studies have shown that patients do not follow regular physical activity instructions.The aim of our project is to examine the effect of pedometer-assisted physical activity on metabolic parameters after kidney transplantation.
Detailed Description:
Patients with kidney transplant surgery will be randomized to the intervention (n: 34) and control groups (n: 34), respectively, according to the transplant surgery date. Intervention and Control groups will be given the same training on the importance of physical activity during discharge training. The pedometer will be given to the intervention group to evaluate the activity level, and it will be said that their goal is to take 2000 steps in 20 minutes a day after discharge. Patients will be asked to carry the pedometer during physical activity, and to write down the number of steps they take in 20 minutes on the form given to them for 90 days. Patients in the control group will only be advised to do physical activity every day and will be asked to record the minutes of physical activity they do for 90 days. Metabolic parameters of the patients in the intervention and control groups will be examined at the end of the 4th and 12th months. These parameters are blood pressure, body mass index, complete blood count (hemoglobin, leukocyte, thrombocyte), blood glucose, sodium, potassium, calcium, liver enzymes, serum creatinine, total and indirect bilirubin, albumin and total cholesterol levels.
